amish of summer grove book 3: White Noise Don DeLillo, 2009-12-29 The National Book Award–winning classic by the author of Underworld and Libra, featuring an introduction by Richard Powers, the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Overstory and Playground Now a major motion picture starring Adam Driver and Greta Gerwig White Noise tells the story of Jack Gladney, his fourth wife, Babette, and four ultramodern offspring as they navigate the rocky passages of family life to the background babble of brand-name consumerism. When an industrial accident unleashes an airborne toxic event, a lethal black chemical cloud floats over their lives. The menacing cloud is a more urgent and visible version of the white noise engulfing the Gladneys—radio transmissions, sirens, microwaves, ultrasonic appliances, and TV murmurings—pulsing with life, yet suggesting something ominous.

But when her meddling aunt's first choice of a husband for her turns out to be Emma's last choice--Pine Creek's most notorious bachelor--Emma grows desperate. Her aunt won't listen, no matter how much she tries to tell her the man in no way embodies the Amish values of faith or hard work. Kind and industrious Levi Bontrager has always wanted to protect his best friend Emma, even after a secret from their youth left them growing apart. Which is why he steps in to claim that Emma cannot wed anyone else, as she is currently courting him. Yes, the small lie leaves him feeling guilty, but Levi's hope is that if he can win back the beautiful Emma's trust, he can also win over her heart ... for real. But can a courtship that began just for show ever blossom into a true romance that could save both their futures?--Amazon |
